Die Mannequin had been working in LA when they got the call that the organizers needed them to help out the cause in Toronto for Haiti. Of course they were winging their way back here to show their support and to give their fans what they want the most. We weren’t able to get an interview with Care Failure, but we did stick our noses into another interview so that you can see her up close.

We arrived quite early, traffic was light heading in and we got exclusive first interviews with just about everyone performing or presenting that evening!
